Enteroviruses commonly circulate in the U.S. during summer and fall. EV-D68 was first identified in California in 1962. Over the past thirty years, only small numbers were reported in the U.S.

The CDC hasn’t suggested reasons for the current uptick or its origin. Without that answer, some question whether the disease is being spread by the presence of tens of thousands of illegal immigrant children from Central America admitted to the U.S. in the past year.

Though the U.S. government is keeping secret the locations of the illegal immigrant children, there are significant numbers of them in both cities in which the current outbreak was first identified, Kansas City, Missouri and Chicago, Illinois, according to local advocates and press reports.

That story comes from Sharyl Attkisson, who is a professional journalist whose neutral stance and exemplary ethics means that she will explore the question but not make a decision without more data. Based on my own experience and observations, now coupled with that info, I’m willing to say this time the correlation is showing us the cause.

Adult illegal immigrants posing as unaccompanied alien children appear to be attempting to enroll at public high schools, city officials in Lynn, Mass., tell National Review Online.

“Some of them have had gray hair and they’re telling you that they’re 17 years old and they have no documentation,” Jamie Cerulli, the Lynn mayor’s chief of staff, tells NRO. “If my children went to the public schools, I’d be very uncomfortable with all of these unaccompanied minors [that] are placed in the ninth grade.”

Having swarms of illegal aliens brought into US schools who don’t speak the language of the rest of the country (and that includes both english and spanish), don’t care about the nation they’re moving to, whose first steps into the nation were to break the law and whose first words to representatives of the nation were lies – all that only serves one purpose. It brings in a new voting underclass – because by the time they’re set to be deported years down the road the leftist cry that will go up will be “it’s inhumane and all they know” – and that new voting underclass will naturally vote for the handout-giving Democrats forever. It’s all a numbers game about cheating the democratic system for power – so they can have it and finally force you to live how they feel the world should live.
